SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 26, 2015 (80 FR 36832), HUD 
published a notice in the Federal Register that invited public comment 
on the variables identified by the Housing Choice Voucher Program 
Administrative Fee Study as impacting administrative fee costs, how HUD 
might use these study findings to develop a new administrative fee 
formula, and any other issues that may arise with the development and 
implementation of a new administrative fee formula.
    In the June 26, 2015 notice, HUD established a comment due date of 
July 27, 2015. In response to recent requests for additional time to 
submit comments, HUD believes an extension of the deadline would 
provide the time needed for interested parties to submit comments. 
Therefore, HUD is announcing through this notice an extended comment 
period, for an additional 15-day period, to August 11, 2015.

    Dated: July 13, 2015.
Camille Acevedo,
Associate General Counsel for Legislation and Regulations.
